Chris Pratt basically became the male Jennifer Lawrence when Guardians of the Galaxy came out. You know, the guy everybody suddenly wanted to be friends with, who made us collectively go, “Oh, why haven’t we known about this guy already? He’s pretty funny!” (Unless you’re a hipster, in which case, you were all like, “Ugh. I hate that everybody feels like they’re discovering Chris Pratt now. I’ve liked him since way before he was even dating Anna Faris!”)
But let’s be real: The true scene-stealer was Groot, with the myriad emotions he expressed with just three small words: “I. Am. Groot.”
